Lin Zhennan looked at the American in amazement, feeling a little familiar. I saw him turn his head loudly and call the guy in the hall to bring a tea bowl, order a snack, and then take care of himself and pour himself a cup of tea from the teapot in front of him, and began to pour himself a cup of tea.

After a while, he realized that this American really didn't regard himself as an outsider, so he hurriedly arched his hand and asked, "Your Excellency?" ”

"You don't know me?" Qian Longzhou squinted at him, "Okay, re-introduction, I am the U.S. commercial representative in Zhancheng Port, surnamed Qian." I was the first to do it when your men were beaten up a few days ago, remember? ”

Lin Zhennan only knew where the previous sense of familiarity came from at this time, and he completely recalled the American who danced a mop stick up and down and whirred, beating his subordinates. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back, "Your Excellency deigned to come, I don't know what happened?" ”

At this time, the guy who ran the hall brought a bowl of porridge and a plate of pale yellow lumpy dim sum, Qian Longzhou drank a big sip without saying a word, and then stuffed two dim sum directly into his mouth, chewed a few bites and swallowed his stomach, "Did I say you did it on purpose?" I opened a business here, and you sent your men to drive away all the people who came to buy things at the street entrance, and only let your own people buy them, this is hoarding and destroying the stability and unity of the market! As he spoke, he threw two more snacks into his mouth. I'll go, isn't this just mung bean cake? ”

The guy on the side laughed, "This is my Zhancheng specialty Huangji mung bean cake, this master is really good and can eat it at once!" This guy's words were sandwiched with a thick Annan accent, which made Qian Longzhou understand for a while, and he couldn't help but laugh. Are you kidding, haven't you eaten anything where we've come from? Mung bean cake is a hair!

Lin Zhennan couldn't help but be a little angry when he saw that this American actually said a few words and chatted with the guy next to him, "This friend, isn't it a little too deceitful?" The goods here can be bought with these dirt buns, why can't I buy them in Zhucheng Ji? ”

"No one says you can't buy it!" Qian Longzhou said and threw two mung bean cakes into his mouth, "You also know that this is a plague place, there are many mosquito bites, and the function of the cooling oil is to prevent mosquitoes and repel mosquitoes, and apply it after bites to prevent infection." This product is specially made for the local climate, my American doctor specially developed this product with the heart of his parents was originally for the benefit of the common people, so that people in the future can afford this medicine, can not worry about mosquito bites, why do you want to do not allow others to buy it? ”

Seeing that Lin Zhennan didn't speak, Qian Longzhou continued, "If it's just to make money, I can hand over the franchise to a certain merchant, as long as the supply is enough, why bother setting up a stall on this street to sell?" My big American businessman only needs to sit and collect money, so why bother with mediocrity? I also asked Boss Lin to recall the interceptors and stop hoarding cool oil. ”

"It's impossible!" Lin Zhennan shook his head, "Do you think we and other businessmen don't know?" This time when I came to Zhancheng Port, you only brought three cylinders of cool oil in total, and they were subcontracted in the back yard of the health center every day. As long as these three cylinders are sold out, they will naturally be out of stock. If you buy in limited quantities at this time, it is just because the goods are insufficient, if there is enough and the supply is open, how can this happen? I, Lin someone, will either want the franchise of cool oil this time, or I can only do this, continue to send people to guard the intersection, and only let my subordinates continue to buy nothing. I wonder what Mr. Qian is going to do? A victorious smile appeared on his face at this time, and he looked at Qian Longzhou playfully.

Qian Longzhou was not angry, just squinted at him, threw two mung bean cakes into his mouth, and swallowed them, "Shopkeeper Lin is also a famous businessman in the local area, and the story of Zhucheng is also impressive for decades. Lin Zhennan didn't speak, just looked at Qian Longzhou with a smile. Qian Longzhou lowered his head and continued to eat snacks, and said slowly, "If Shopkeeper Lin really desires the franchise so much, it's not impossible, it's just that some things look good, and they may not be so good when they get it." ”

Lin Zhennan didn't know Qian Longzhou's plans, and continued to remain silent, Qian Longzhou finished eating the mung bean cake on the plate, and stretched out his hand to greet the guy who came over, "Another plate." Then he looked at Lin Zhennan again, "The cool oil itself is worthless, if you are so eager for the cool oil, it is not impossible for me to sell these three jars to you, but I don't know if Boss Lin can eat it at this price." ”

The cool oil brought by this crossing is only three five-kilogram jars, which is about ten kilograms of cool oil in total, and the total number of sales in the past few days is only about one kilogram, and there should be ** kilograms left. Qian Longzhou has not thought about this matter, but according to the requirements of the Ministry of Trade, these cool oils must be dispersed and packaged to open up sales, and cannot continue to stay on the purchasing power of ordinary people as a luxury product. This time, Lin Zhennan used this hand to forcibly buy cool oil, which made him very annoyed, in the old time and space, he saw those scalpers speculating on train tickets, fried iphones, and millet, and he actually came to this new world by himself and met a big scalper at the beginning, and the idea of him welled up in his heart.

He talked to Lin Zhennan about the price of cool oil, and the remaining cool oil was packed for 3,000 taels of silver to Zhucheng Ji, and he paid the money with one hand and delivered it with the other, and also signed a written contract, these cool oils can be sold by Lin Zhennan at will. The shopkeeper Lin must separately deliver 3,000 taels of silver to the U.S. Department of Trade to ensure that all the cool oil products sent by sea through the sea in the next three years can only be sold through Zhuchengji.

Lin Zhennan's heart was full of joy at this time, although he offended these American maritime merchants at the beginning, but the other party was able to be so disregardful of his previous suspicions, and the more than ten catties of cool oil were packaged and sold to himself, and he even got the franchise. Excited, he hurriedly asked the guy to get a set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and wrote a contract on the spot to ensure that in the next three years, all the cool oil products sent by the sea through the sea can only be sold through Zhuchengji, and the two parties signed it to take effect.

To be honest, he didn't know that there were loopholes in this contract, and he only had the franchise if he came by sea transportation, and he would not have it if he came by land transportation. But until now, he had never seen anyone who could transport more goods in carts than ships, and even if the Americans used carts to transport cool oil in large quantities, not to mention that there was no road at all to the newly developed port of Orient not far to the north, and even if there were roads, he did not believe that the deplorable road conditions of the official road could transport goods on a large scale and have an impact on his monopoly position. Not to mention whether the Americans will build a road here in order to sell cool oil, even if they build a road here, it will be a few years later, and this time is enough for him to make a lot of money here. As for the price of cool oil, the two sides have not agreed, but he is not worried about this problem, the Americans ask for the price on the spot, he can pay back the money on the spot, first, the Americans can only sell the cool oil through Zhuchengji, and second, even if the price is extremely high, he will also increase the retail price, anyway, there are people who buy medicine to help him bear the price difference.

Excited, he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to disperse the guards who intercepted at the corner of the street, and removed the small people in the queue.

Qian Longzhou made a detailed report to the Executive Committee on this matter, which described each treaty of the business contract and his ideas, since Lin Zhennan used this outrageous means to monopolize the market, the traverser might as well use anti-monopoly methods to break it, during this time, Dongfang Port sent three cans of five kilograms of cool oil every month, and the selling price was a total of five thousand taels. Before the establishment of the U.S. trading station in Champa Port, distribution through Zhucheng Kee's sales channels was also a good way.

Because the cool oil itself has already grabbed enough benefits for the crossing of the public, the perfume money and dragon boat that were carried in the past are hidden in the warehouse of the guard, and people watch them every day, and they have no intention of selling them at all. On the return trip through the crowd, he bought a large amount of grain and ore, so that he had to lease the five-masted ship that had been rescued again, because the major shareholder of the ship had died when the pirates attacked, his family sold the ship directly to the traversal in exchange for cash, and the other shareholders also did not have much confidence in the sea trade because of the pirate attack, and they also sold their shares, and finally Gu Qingqian waived the maintenance fee of the ship. He paid for the price at which the five-masted ship was built at the time, with the silver coins stamped by the traversers themselves. As soon as this batch of silver coins came on the market, it directly caused a sensation in the whole market, and this kind of silver coins with exquisite workmanship like a work of art directly impacted the currency market of the entire Champa Port, because of its exquisite style, the same weight, and sufficient fineness, the merchants were willing to accept such silver coins as trading currency, and even the fire consumption was not collected, and almost for a time occupied the entire Champa Port market. Even the princess was fascinated by the beauty of the silver coin and the cuteness of the cartoon characters on it, and asked the travelers for a set of "American silver coins" as a collection.

Gu Qingqian had already returned to Dongfang Port at this time, and she had just returned to the port a few days ago to report to the Executive Committee at the Executive Committee's office about the transaction with Champa Port and the trade agreement reached between the two sides. The Executive Committee attached great importance to this first area to go to the "bright light", and through the discussion at the meeting, it was decided to build a four-lane highway along the coastline to the port of Vostochny. Because of the arms contract signed, the crossing group needs to build an iron-making plant and a foundry, and I am afraid that all this will not be able to form the capacity for mass production in two or three months, so the weapons design team will first select the weapon model, and then hand over the design drawings to the industrial group for trial production, and then select the model among them, and finally carry out industrial production.
